4.Clip, magnet Hoops

For the convenience of people without pierced ears, some ring-shaped earrings will be designed into a clip shape with ear beads.

The magnet earrings are an earring with a magnet on the outside and a mini magnet with opposite magnetism on the inside. The two magnets firmly clamp the ear beads.
